London, UK, 2nd March OnePlan, the world’s leading live event site and venue planning platform, today announced it has raised $6M in a new strategic investment led by Elysian Park Ventures and Verance Capital. The strategic relationship and investment will accelerate  OnePlan’s commitment to supporting live event venues, with a focus on the sporting venue  market. 

OnePlan provides proprietary groundbreaking 3D digital mapping tools that allow venue planners  to expertly and seamlessly organise live events of all sizes – from marathons to music festivals,  cycling races, football games and triathlons. Founded in 2019, OnePlan’s technology has been used to power over 25,000 of the world’s best live events at iconic venues in 107 countries,  including Intuit Dome, home of the LA Clippers, Silverstone, as well as USA Triathlon. OnePlan  is the Official Supporter of GIS Mapping and Digital Twin Software for the Olympic and Paralympic  Games Paris 2024. 

Paul Foster, OnePlan founder and CEO, said:

“We’re honored to have the support of Elysian  Park Ventures and Verance Capital as we further our mission of revolutionising the events and  venues industry the world over. It’s heartening to see how our customers, at some of the biggest  venues in the world, get immediate operational and security benefits from using OnePlan, along  with significant commercial gains.” 

With OnePlan, venues can leverage automated real-time data intelligence to plan for and  measure crowd capacity and safety, arrival and exit flows, optimal placement for stages or  marquees, and even the right placement of refuse facilities. OnePlan’s digital twin product, Venue  Twin, gives organisers virtual access to real world venues, opening new opportunities for venue  owners and operators. In addition to the operational planning benefits, Venue Twin can be used  as a sales and marketing tool for advertisers, sponsors and fans, and enables third party licensing  of official virtual venues as consumer applications for the metaverse open up. The platform is  leveraged by World Triathlon, World Obstacle and more.  

“Venues, and particularly sporting venues, play such an important role in our communities by  providing spaces for communities to gather and celebrate,” said Ami Galani, Venture Partner  with Elysian Park Ventures. “OnePlan’s immersive 2D and 3D digital twinning provide game changing tools to create rich experiences. We are excited by how OnePlan gives access to this  powerful platform to the broadest set of live event planners, from the largest of global events to  local community events.”

“Live events are an increasingly integral aspect of our society and OnePlan’s technology enables  comprehensive and seamless event planning for stadiums and venues, as well as intuitive  software that suits any event organiser.” said Julian Kershaw-Weih, Principal with Verance Capital. “We believe OnePlan’s best-in-class systems will bring live events to the next level for  attendees, organisers and venues alike.” 

OnePlan has recently hired a Director, North America based in Los Angeles as the company continues to grow in the US.
